Hi Harm, First, I don't remember if tktable's cvs contains the very latest version of the python tktable wrapper. So, I recommend to get the one from http://tkinter.unpy.net/wiki/TkTableWrapper (which is the latest version in tktable's cvs plus minor fixes). With this wrapper all you have to do is set the environment variable TKTABLE_LIBRARY to point to the directory that contains the tktable tcl package -- if it is not in any standard directory --. I also don't remember if there is a windows binary for tktable. Last time I used tktable on Windows I grabbed the tcl/tk distribution from activestate which includes it and many other libraries. > > I thought I could simply modify the wrapper to point to the tcl: > def __init__(self, master=None, **kw): > master = _setup_master(master) > try: > master.tk.call('package', 'require', 'Tktable') > except Tkinter.TclError: > try: > master.tk.call('load', 'tkTable.dll', 'Tktable') > except Tkinter.TclError: > master.tk.call('load','C:\\Python26\\tcl\\tk8.5\\tkTable.tcl', > 'Tktable') > #master.tk.call('load', '', 'tkTable') > But that does not work either. > > Anybody using tkTable on windows: How did you do it ? > I guess I have to modify the TCL standard path to make it find the tcl > or DLL but not having any TCL experience, I have no idea how to do that > from python. > > Regards, > > HK > > _______________________________________________ > Tkinter-discuss mailing list > Tkinter-discuss@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss > -- -- Guilherme H.
